The BEC Foundation is proud to support efforts that strengthen the communities we serve. Proceeds totaling $53,540 from the BEC Foundation’s 2025 Annual Golf Tournament were donated to help support those impacted by the Kerr County Flood on July 4, 2025.

BEC Foundation Board Members contributed the funds to the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country in December 2025. Chief Executive Officer Austin Dickson shared that the funds will be used to support the area of greatest need for Kerr County residents. “Housing remains the greatest need in Kerr County after the July 4 floods. National disaster recovery frameworks identify safe and stable housing as the foundation for every other part of recovery. Without housing, families cannot return to work, children cannot return to school and communities cannot rebuild,” explained Dickson.

To meet this need, the Community Foundation has committed $50 million across a comprehensive set of housing programs. Each household works with a disaster case manager to understand its options and choose the pathway that best fits its needs. The approach includes housing choice for families and supports the speed and stability of building through strong local partnerships and clear accountability.

The BEC Foundation would like to thank the members and employees who participated in the annual golf tournament, which helped make this contribution possible and supports the ongoing process of rebuilding lives affected by the devastating flood.
